John David Moore is approaching the top of the mountain.
It is so very near. There it is, on the horizon, five year’s in the making.
The top of the mountain for Moore, the former LSU fullback, is not the NFL draft in four weeks or LSU pro day on Wednesday. The top of the mountain was not the Citrus Bowl on Jan. 1, his final college game, or senior night against Texas A&M, his last game in Tiger Stadium.
All of those things made this climb more difficult, yes, but the top of the mountain is something outside of football entirely.
